On the palate there is good size

Roberto Voerzio, Langhe Fontanazza Pissotta Merlot other_regions_australia On the palate there isLoads of black olive and blackberry character with hints of chili. Medium to full body, fresh herb and berry flavors. Slightly angular tannins and a flavorful finish. Just opening to be ready to drink now. An outstanding merlot from one of the great producers of Barolo. Drink or hold.
